Jimmy Nelson takes hill against the Giants

Jimmy Nelson will be on the mound Tuesday night as the Brewers look to bounce back from a 12-3 opening day whipping at the hands of the San Francisco Giants at Miller Park.

The lineup is much the same as in the opener other than left-handed-hitting Ramon Flores getting the start in center against Giants right-hander Johnny Cueto. Also, Scooter Gennett is up to second and Jonathan Villar down to eighth, where the pitcher batted in the opener.
